(I) talk of Christ . . . and (I) write according to (my understanding), that (my) children (and friends) may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. (2 Nephi 25:26)

Ultimately, People Are More Alike than Different

For the past few years, my mother has been sending her kids lots of written stuff she has accumulated over the years. She recently sent the following poem, and I thought I would share it
with here. I preserved the ALL CAPS, because I just don't have
the energy to fix it.

SOME PEOPLE I KNOW

SOME PEOPLE I KNOW LIKE TO CHATTER, WHILE OTHERS SPEAK HARDLY A WORD.

SOME THINK THERE IS NOTHING THE MATTER WITH BEING COMPLETELY ABSURD.

SOME ARE IMPOSSIBLY SERIOUS, WHILE OTHERS ARE ABSOLUTE FUN.

SOME ARE RESERVED AND MYSTERIOUS, WHILE OTHERS SHINE BRIGHT AS THE SUN.

Posts and Comments

I currently try to post original thoughts on Fridays, with quotes on Tuesdays. Feel free to comment on new or old posts. Comments on posts over a month old are moderated to avoid spam and will be released whenever I notice them. The comment policy is at the bottom of this page.

Rules for My Personal Blog

I welcome dissenting opinions about what I write and will never delete a comment solely because I disagree with its content. However, I will delete any and all comments that include personal attacks or insults (on individuals or the LDS Church) or blanket, thoughtless comments that reflect no effort to understand the post or individual comments - and any comment that I know to be patently untrue and inflammatory.
